TO MY WIFE.

why need you care, dear wife, or hoed
The passing Of your early grace?
What though the lilies supersede
The spring time roses of your face'
What though the azure Of your eyes
Has mcllowed 10 a softer blueE
The fairest tints that deck the skies
Are caught from twilight fading hue.
Why should the ripened fruit regret
Its suuuner bloom, howe'er so fair?
Why need you sigh, though Time should set
His crown Of silver on your hair?
The sweetest fragrance Of the rose
Is from its fading petals pressed,
And Nature spreads her earliest SHOWS
Adore the flowers she loves the best.
What care we for the vanished years.
Save for the fruit their summers brought;
What care we for our fallen tears,
Save for the rainboWs on them wrought
Why should we mourn the joys We shared,
Or see them perish with regret,
Since on the fruit our hearts have Jared,
And memory keeps the rainbows yet:
What though our winter time has come,
And summers buds and blooms expiredf
Love hath an ever radiant home,
And bids us welcome to its fire.
il dweIt with us through all the spring;
We sheltered him from summers heat;
Now at his hearth we'll sit and sing,
And let the wintry tempest beat.

as far as | could Judge, in advance Of

try in Maryland, about twenty miles
from Washington. when ! came upon
what appeared to be Il musl;rat's ness,
only at the top there was a hole, black
encd around the edges. \ further III

large enough to allow Il nan to crawl
in. | knocked by tossing Il cornstalk
down the chimney, and in Il few mo-
ments there appeared from the door a
negro so lideous, 50 bcstial in every
feature, that my very horse backed OIL.
1t vas the missing link, if there evct
was one, and the iargon of sounds tina,
the creature uttered only added to the
strangeness of his appearance. Icould
not understand u word. and rode over
the fields to a house, where the owner
not only gave me the history OF the
strange being, but induced me to crawl
into the den after him. The man could
only talk in II gibberish understood by
his employer. He was not an idiot,
as we might have supposed, but was
simply, as my acquaintance put II,
n type of the lowest kind. lie
had owned him before the war, and
he was valued as Il laborcr, preferring
to work in bitches, often up to his wais,

man claimed to be Il Prince in his ma.

slave and brought to Florida, and finally
again sold here. At that time he was
being paid n nominal sum, which he
gave to an alleged relative, reservine

To edit q newspaper in a storm IS
rather a stormy business. Doing the

sensation, keeping as quiet as we can,
lodging and hiding about to keep from
being hit by the flying timbers, taking
only the news-side, that il, giving the

from an open or even covert fight,
because one is a man preacher with all
the women on his side and the other Is
a woman dramatist with all the men on
her side; and being ourself man,
and, therefore, naturally on the

wishing TO keep on the good side OF the

can, considering our confusion.
Perhaps no man living or dead ever
had a harder time. In the first place.
we wrote as soon as the ball opened
just what We thought, and that Was that
we thought we didn't know. Believing
thstthis would be near enough to both
sides to make no enemies and lose no
friends, We adopted it. Contrarv to al
rules in politics, where il is well settled
that The fellow who knows nothing, sees
nothing, does nothing, and is nothing
generally gets there, We ionnd our
selves between the devil aud the deep
sea, and if we can get forgiveness for
playing politician this time We will In
future always take sides on every ques-
ton that comes mp, even If We know
that both sides are wrong. For two
dsys We have been hiding out
